Reformatted my PC yesterday, installed Win2k PRO with SP4, all windows updates installed, everything up to date, directx, gfx drivers, sound drivers, chipset drivers....
I install the game, patch it, copy the folder structure and replaces all files in chaos theory folder. I start the game, nothing happens.
It's obviously the crack...

Listen to yourself, it works for 60%. How can that be a working crack then?

If its the crack it would not work, period. I will not speculate here but to me it really seem to be something else that is not doing it. Some other forum thoughts on this.

The crack works for some, period. If a crack wont work for everyone, it's not a 100% working crack now is it? So they obviously need to fix it.

Well whatever. If they feel it needs a crack fix they will do one...when they do one.

No, the crack is 100%, the problem is the ntdll file, the same problem was with The GodFather and more games. The ntdll file is giving the problems. No solution is found at the moment for this.
PC: Yes. Console: No.

So let's say this is a ntdll problem, why come this isn't a common problem on the Original retail versions?

I tested it first with sp1, and no go. Updated to sp2 and it worked. Dunno if it´s that or what caused this, but it works now, and I´m happy .
(original eu-version,"pirated" xp)...
Edit: Had to use automatic updater, ´cause downloadable 1.00 to 1.05 crashed (something about "file is found" ..blablablaa...). No restarting, just created new shortcut (after apllying crack). Just my 2 cents...

I have SP2 , every update you can think of, updated videocard/mainboard/sound and it dosent work.
It has fuckall to do with SP2, its the crack.
Read the above text again!
As I said before it works on the other PC fine, why wont it work on my PC?
Athlon 64 issues?
VIA KT800 issues?

I've got win2k sp4 (constantly updated, and no legit check as in winxp) and the reloaded copy of the game. I followed carefully what the nfo says, read many posts in different forums to see if I had overlooked anything, and for me the game doesn't work. There seems to be a general agreement that this release works in 60% of the cases, that means a 40% of failures: not little, indeed. So, a crackfix is needed, and IMHO this release fully deserves to be nuked, which doesn't mean that Reloaded are not great, but even the best can - sometimes - make a mistake.

Ok, i see your point, as for the issues you mention, i don't think it's about ther hardware you mention. Why? Because i don't have an Athlon 64 nor do i have audigy 2 and Via Kt800.
My Cpu: Athlon xp 2400. My Mobochipset: Via A7v33-x, Soundcard: Soundblaster live Digital. Yeah i know, it's and old comp but it should be able to run Chaos Theory, so i don't know.

Groups dont give support to old OSses anymore, you need to have at least Windows XP + SP2, and you guys should try to update your Windows to currentstate on \/\/indowsupdate.com
PC: Yes. Console: No.

Wrong. Cracks must work on the same number of OS'es as the original game. In this case Winxp and WIn2000. Period.

Hehe I guess we'll have to wait.. My guess it could be some third party program interfering somehow?

Wrong, I have the lastest scene rules here, 2000 and lower isnt needed to be supported anymore. Nearly all groups dropped that already.
PC: Yes. Console: No.
